Solazo Taqueria

Ginger was a pro! Only complaint was the red sauce was too wet for my taste (enchilada). Overall everything was good and we are stuffed.

I rarely write reviews while still sitting in a place, but this time it’s just different. I need to. I randomly walked into this place because I was craving tacos, it’s 2:23pm on a Thursday, I took a break from work to have lunch and being done now I am contemplating what I just experienced. It’s not a “You should” type of thing, it is a “You need to, you must” give yourself permission to experience something like this. The quality of service, the atmosphere, I’m not in a restaurant, I’m at my grandma’s, I’m not just eating carne asada street tacos, this is soul food, this organic group of human beings moving the strings of the place are giving me something not every restaurant can give nowadays, and for this, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. What you are doing at Solazo Taqueria is important and should not go unnoticed. Thank you, once again. And if you made it this far, go on a random day, on a random hour, and indulge yourself in this immersive experience while you’re still breathing. Tomorrow can be too late.

My husband and I were looking for some hot fresh Mexican food to end our Sunday night, we were pretty hungry and went to Solazo because it closed at 10pm. Our waiter was pleasant but that was maybe one of the few things that were okay about our visit. I’m pretty basic when I go to a New Mexican place and always get the fajitas to see if the food is any good. This is the first time that I didn’t get any rice with my fajitas. I’m not sure if it’s just me or if my expectations where high so correct me if I’m wrong but I thought it was standard to get rice with your fajitas as well as beans guacamole sour cream , tortillas and lettuce and cheese. Anyway no rice only 2 tortillas. The beans were how I knew that this isn’t a good Mexican place. It tasted like powdered beans and Ive never even had powdered beans but somehow that’s what I was getting. You can’t get beans wrong that’s just no. Guacamole wasn’t even that , cheese seemed old lettuce not fresh, fajitas itself was another thing that was okay because it was hot but not memorable, best thing I had all night was my coke and my husband agreed, he got a dish that I forgot the name of and was cold on the inside. Needless to say we will be sticking to our go to Mexican place.
